Titan AE Animates PlayStation

Fox Interactive today announced another major media transformation. First was Buffy the Vampire Slayer, which will come to PlayStation. And now, the upcoming summer film, Titan AE (AE means After Earth), is coming down the PlayStation pike, too.

Due this summer in theaters across the nation, Titan AE is a science fiction story of anime-style characters who are in danger of becoming extinct. The movie is due this June 16, and the game is due this fall, along with the home video. The first playable version will be available at E3 this May.

In development with UK-based Interactive Studios, Titan AE pits players as either Cale or Akima as they fight Drej aliens and search for the lost ship known as Titan, which holds the secret to salvaging the last of the human race.

Players can take the game on in two ways, through a third-person action/adventure game, or through the cockpit of a ship. Environments and detailed characters will appear from the movie itself, and the story will parallel the movie, but it's likely that the development team will take some creative license to create an engaging game on its own.

Fox wouldn't provide any more details on these gameplay features, but we'll find out more as soon as possible.
